Watcher (Apache ZooKeeper - Server 3.9.2 API)

All Known Subinterfaces:

ServerWatcher

All Known Implementing Classes:

ControllableConnection, DumbWatcher, NettyServerCnxn, NIOServerCnxn, ServerCnxn
```
@Public
public interface Watcher
```
This interface specifies the public interface an event handler class must implement. A ZooKeeper client will get various events from the ZooKeeper server it connects to. An application using such a client handles these events by registering a callback object with the client. The callback object is expected to be an instance of a class that implements Watcher interface. When process(org.apache.zookeeper.WatchedEvent) is triggered by a watch firing, such as Watcher.Event.EventType.NodeDataChanged, WatchedEvent.getZxid() will return the zxid of the transaction that caused said watch to fire. If -1L is returned then the server must be updated to support this feature.
